Vitiligo or Leucoderma is a disease in which the skin progressively loses its color. It affects 1% of the world population and thanks to a group of Cuban scientists today the cure has been discovered. 

The disease is characterized by the appearance of depigmentation areas located mainly on the face, extremities and genital region of the individuals that suffer from it. It can remain localized in these places for a long time or spread rapidly throughout the body until it is fully depigmented. The disease is due to the destruction of a type of cell called melanocyte that is responsible for producing the pigment that colors the skin (melanin).

To start the treatment it is necessary to be consulted in the Placental Histotherapy Center located at Calle 18 No. 4302 corner 43. Miramar, Playa, Havana, Cuba. and stay for a minimum of 3 days in the country. The consultations are developed by specialized medical personnel from Monday to Friday of each week from 8:30 am to 4:00 pm, with a price of 120 dollars (120 Cuban Convertible Pesos). 

The training sessions in the treatment method have a value of 40 dollars each (there are 3) and the patient stays in the hotels of the capital since the treatment is ambulatory. Patients are attended on a first-come, first-served basis, therefore reservations are not possible.

The treatment is carried out for 3 consecutive days: the day is the presentation of the treatment, the specialized medical consultation and the beginning of the treatment. If the doctor deems it necessary, he will be referred to a psychology consultation at no additional cost. On days 2 and 3 the patient is taught to use the medication. 

To continue the treatment in your country, the patient will be advised in consultation with the appropriate amount of medication to take, according to the degree of extension of their body surface affected by the disease. The price of a bottle of Melagenina Plus (235 ml) is 36 dollars. The drug Melagenin Plus is not available for sale and to be able to buy it requires an evaluation and medical prescription from the Cuban Center, which includes the consultation and the three treatment sessions.

Melagenin Plus (Melagenin + Calcium Chloride) is an alcoholic extract of human placenta, which has the property of increasing the reproduction of melanocytes, as well as accelerating the production process of melanin within it, resulting in a medicine of choice for the treatment of Vitiligo by accelerating the reproduction of the remaining melanocytes in the edge or inner zone of the acronic regions of the patient. 

The safety of the treatment allows its use in both children and adults, including the elderly, pregnant women and women during the menstrual period. It is compatible with any type of food or drink, as well as with other groups of medicines, with the exception of psoralens, corticosteroids, and cytostatic drugs, with which it manifests antagonism.
